Pros

I loved hanging out with my team and building relationships with my students and their families. I really feel I had a big impact on the academic performance of my students and that’s exactly why I decided to join.

Cons

The pay is low, but this is expected because this is a service year/ gap year opportunity. I looked into several gap year opportunities before joining SAGA and the pay was always on the lower end .Some AmeriCorps programs only offered $12k during the year.

Not much, as long as you take the opportunities being presented to you and pave your own way.
